Appearance - Armadillos are a unique looking creature and are typically not confused with other animals when seen in daylight. Armadillos have nine or ten horizontal bands that run down its bone casing for flexibility. They have short legs, and long claws for digging. The casing is a very hard and shiny to protect against predators. An armadillo normally runs the same size as a small dog or medium-sized house cat, between 10 to 18 pounds, and varies in shades of gray.
Behavior - Armadillo problems usually begin with burrows around your house, flowers in your garden that have been uprooted or munched on. Armadillos are insectivores, and they dig for food in addition to making homes. Armadillos can create around 10-15 burrows within a 10-acre piece of land which could cause damage to your property and housing foundation. These burrows are usually about 8 inches wide and can be up to 14 feet deep. Armadillos are typically nocturnal so seeing these signs occurring during the night might signify an armadillo problem.
Armadillos are looking to create burrows for safety and also to allow them to quickly move across your yard with ease--specifically underground. They also dig to find food as well which includes insects, worms, and grubs. While having Armadillos around may seem like a good way to fend off other pests, If your property allows for space and does not have a fence to keep them out, armadillos may take up residence where you do not want them.
If an armadillo problem is left untreated, you could risk the foundation of your property becoming compromised or cracked sidewalks and driveways from underlying burrows. An unnoticed burrow could lead to injury if accidentally stepped into. Armadillos are also possible carriers of Hansen’s Disease, otherwise known as Leprosy--although the risk of contracting the disease from an armadillo is minimal.
Explained what they were doing and answered all my questions.
The technician is very energetic and proactive! The pest control treatment is very intensive, and extensive!
I had my initial house treatnment application today, and the tech was professional, knowledgeable, and polite. He worked promptly and did a wonderful job! Thanks!
I am satisfied with the initial service, and time will tell if the treatment is effective. The technician seemed to know his stuff. He went over the details with me and the treatment plan for our property.
Kudos to their friendly reps who gave me superb service!
We are extremely satisfied with Presto-X. Their office reps are very knowledgeable, and their field reps are experts at what they do. Two reps in particular are very friendly and exceed expectations. Just two weeks ago, my mom had a bad fall, and they recommended we postpone our scheduled treatment. They even offered to get me and my mom some food since the kitchen was empty for the treatment, and I could not leave my mom alone. While one of them got us food, the other even prayed for my mom's quick recovery. Praise God! He then explained to us in great detail the treatment they were going to do. What's not to love about Presto-X? That's why I recommend Presto-X to friends, family, and strangers every chance I get. I normally don't bother with reviews, but Presto-X and their reps deserve all the praise. Not only do they do an excellent job and are quite knowledgeable, they also really care for their customers. THANK YOU SO MUCH, Presto-X!!!
